I needed a quiet place to sleep and the area appears to be safe, no issues while I was there. The toilet needs to be fix as it runs after flushing, so you need to take of the lid and pull up the float.

Stayed here several times while visiting family and always clean with friendly staff. We recently stayed in Room #22 and although it was nice and clean, it had a distinct odor of something like mildew (wife said spoiled milk and thought it was from the pillows)...so not really sure exactly what it was. Wish they had a small coffee pot and coffee pods also so we didn't have to leave the room immediately after waking up.

I have no complaints, but offer a suggestion. Consider removing carpeting. It would be MUCH cleaner and safer.

Has an operating restaurant on site with rather limited hours but appreciated none the less. Nearby lakes provide a variety of things to do. Our bathroom had been recently renovated and was very nice.
